Back Home!

Well, we are finally back in Henderson. After 10 hours of driving, and a 12 hour total trip, we got back last night around 11:45pm all safe and sound.

I hope this blog was something that you enjoyed while we were gone and I hope it half-way kept you up to date on things that were going on.

You've read and seen pictures of some pretty funny stuff...and you've also read some pretty good spiritual stuff that went on in PCB. You've read it, and you'll hear about it from the students, but I really want you to sit back and watch the change happen. Nothing is more powerful when someone says a change has happened in their life than for others to be able to see it lived out. All of our students were challenged this week, and some have already publically accepted the challenge while others are still soaking it in...but you WILL see change from some of the students. That gets me pretty excited to be totally honest with you. I remember how a camp experience like this one caused God to finally get to be about living a Godly life and I see it happening in the lives of some of the students now. So sit back and watch....watch the challenge to change lived out in their lives, then use that to lead yourself to change.

Back Home!

Leaving Panama City Beach.

The last song at camp...pumped and ready to head home.

The fearless men who saved the Treasure Ship from burning down. True story..ask the guys.

I'm sure most of you agree that God works in crazy ways...sometimes through crazy tests of our faith...sometimes through crazy people. I'm a person, for whatever reason, that draws that kind of stuff on a somewhat regular basis...and tonight was no exception. Brannon and I were at Hungry Howie's getting pizzas for tonight and met Jean. She had about 8 Wal-Mart bags in her arms and couldn't walk too well to begin with. She left the pizza place only to come back within a minute or so...moaning and holding onto her knee. Apparently she had tripped over "one of those stupid parking things" as she said, and scraped her knee. We got her some napkins to blot her knee and gave her a ride home that she asked for. Now I just said that not becaise it specifically relates to anyone of you...it's mine and Brannon's to digest, but I wanted to share that with you just to remind you that our faith is tried from time to time. For me it usually seems to be the "crazy" people I run into in weird situations and conversations...but when faith is tested, true faith rises to the top and true faith fakers show through too. We could have not been Jesus to the "least of these," but if we weren't, what would that say about our faith? It doesn't have to be Jean carrying 8 Wal-Mart bags, but when your Jean comes, which faith will shine through?
